4. FIRST AID MEASURES
If swallowed: Immediately call a poison control center or doctor. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor. Do not give any liquid to the person. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
If inhaled: Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice.
If in eyes: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Gamma-Cyhalothrin: Induced vomiting as first aid for this substance may result in increased risk of chemical pneumonia or pulmonary edema cause by aspiration of the hydrocarbon solvent. Vomiting should be induced only under professional supervision. Skin exposure may also result in a sensation described as tingling, itching, burning, or prickly feeling. Onset may occur immediately to 4 hours after exposure and may last 2 to 30 hours, without damage. Wash exposed areas once with soap and water. Relief from the skin sensation may be obtained by applying an oil-based cream.
Spinosad: No specific antidote. Treatment of exposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient.

PAGE 2 OF 3 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED:
In case of leak or spill, contain by absorbing spilled liquid with clay or other absorbent material; scoop or sweep up material and place in a container for possible land application according to label use or for proper disposal. Dike area in case of large spills. Do not use water for cleanup. Check local, state and federal regulations for proper disposal.
CAUTION: Keep spills and cleaning runoff from flowing onto adjacent land, or into municipal sewers and open bodies of water.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Wash hands after handling, and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Keep away from children. Do not use or store near heat or open flame.
STORAGE: Store in original container only. Keep container closed when not in use. Do not store near food or feed. Do not allow product to freeze. Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) – Applicators and other handlers must wear: long sleeved shirt and long pants, chemical resistant gloves, such as barrier laminate or Viton® >14 mils, shoes plus socks, and protective eyewear. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no instructions for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. After each day of use, clothing or PPE must not be reused until it has been cleaned.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets with requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40CFR 170.240 (d)(4-6)], the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Not normally required, if vapors exceed acceptable levels, wear a NIOSH approved pesticide respirator with cartridges for pesticide vapors.
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical goggles or shielded safety glasses.
SKIN PROTECTION: Wear protective clothing: long-sleeved shirts and pants, hat, rubber boots with socks. Wear rubber or chemical- resistant gloves.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
This product is extremely toxic to fish and aquatic organisms (LC50 or EC50 is < 0.1 mg/L in the most sensitive species tested) and toxic to wildlife. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift from treated areas. Drift and runoff from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when cleaning equipment or disposing of equipment wash waters. This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming crops or weeds. Do not apply this product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds if bees are visiting the treatment area.
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
PESTICIDE DISPOSAL: Pesticide wastes are acutely hazardous. Improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixture, or rinsate is a violation of Federal law. If these wastes cannot be disposed of by use according to label instructions, contact your State Pesticide or Environmental Control Agency, or the Hazardous Waste Representative at the nearest EPA Regional Office for guidance. CONTAINER DISPOSAL: Non-refillable container. Do not reuse this container to hold materials other than pesticides or dilute pesticides (rinsate).
After emptying and cleaning, it may be allowable to temporarily hold rinsate or other pesticide-related materials in the container. Contact your state regulatory agency to determine allowable practices in your state. Once cleaned, some agricultural plastic pesticide containers can be taken to a container collection site or picked up for recycling. To find the nearest site, contact your chemical dealer or manufacturer, or contact The Agricultural Container Recycling Council (ACRC) at www.acrecycle.org. If not recycled, then puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or incineration, or if allowed by state and local authorities, by burning. If burned, stay out of smoke. Triple rinse or pressure rinse container (or equivalent) promptly after emptying. For packages up to 5 gallons: Triple rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Fill the container ¼ full with water and recap. Shake for 10 seconds. Pour rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later use or disposal. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Repeat this procedure two more times. Pressure rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and continue to drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Hold container upside down over application equipment or mix tank or collect rinsate for later use or disposal. Insert pressure rinsing nozzle in the side of the container, and rinse at about 40 PSI for at least 30 seconds. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal.
